A year or so ago we added some filters to improve the comments appearing on our article pages. We made it so you had to be a member at least a month, have at least 15 comments and have fewer than two recent warnings in order for your comment to appear.

Well, up until last week, that 2-recent-warnings rule wasn't actually enforced. Now it is. A warning is "recent" as long as it's less than six months old. So, if you have more than two warnings in the last six months, your comments won't show up on articles until that point when you have fewer than two warnings.

This applies to a very small percentage of our commenters. If you have any questions, you know what to do.
